Although lip tints are much less of a hassle compared to lipsticks, they don’t leave a mark like on a coffee cup, and they still give you the natural shiny look to your lips with long-lasting colour. Just like with any other makeup products, there are few things you need to keep in mind to choose the best one for yourself. 

Matte, glossy, peel-off, moisturizing, and more, there are many types when it comes to lip tints. All you have to do is choose based on your preference and situation. For parties, you'll want to have a shiny look, for office, a sophisticated-matte look. So, check out as we explain the types below. 

You probably must have heard about this type before as they are one of the most popular and trendy ones because they are very easy to apply. If you're looking for a natural look, this type will be your best bet, as they come in a watery or gel-based consistency, giving you minimal coverage. 

If you want a long-lasting application, liquid-types stay throughout without the need of re-applying. However, we do not recommend this type to those with dry lips, as liquid lip tints do not have a moisturizing formula.

Peel-off lip tints work a little differently than the other lip tints out there. They leave a deep stain that stays for about 12 hours. Like liquid lip tints, they also have a natural look but are also healthy. 

Their application goes like this - you have to apply a thick layer on your lips and wait for about 8-10 minutes. After it’s dry, you have to peel it off, and you'll get juicy-looking lips. 

If you’ve got lips that easily become dry and chapped, then you must look for formulas that are more moisturizing and balmy to avoid making the condition of your lips worse. Matte finishes and powder-based formulations are not right for this purpose. 

As they do not provide enough hydration. Choose hydration over pigmentation because not even pigmented tints can hide cracked lips.

The first thing to check in the ingredients list is if it’s a paraben-free product. Paraben is a chemical used in cosmetics to increase the shelf-life. They do not particularly have any short-term effects but in the long-term. 

It is believed that they influence hormones; reproductive activities like menstruation and pregnancy. You can also check for alcohol and fragrance-free products, as they can dry out the lips, and some people might be allergic to fragrance.

One of the main benefits of using a lip tint is that it lasts much longer than lipstick. Therefore, when choosing a lip stain, you should check the reviews to know whether it has decent staying power and is actually worth buying. You should also look at the reviews to see how the lip tint looks when it fades, as well as how easy it is to wash off at the end of the day.
